Intermediate / Senior Accountant | Business Services

Salary: $85,000 to $110,000 + superannuation Location: Dalby or Toowoomba, QLD Work style: Permanent full-time | Two days WFH per week after onboarding

Why This Role

Work closely with Partners, get to know your clients and see how your advice supports their businesses.

This established regional practice offers a mix of accounting, tax compliance, planning and advisory support. Longstanding relationships provide context beyond the annual accounts, from understanding how a business operates to helping its owners plan their next steps.

Responsibilities will reflect your experience. Intermediate accountants can strengthen their technical capability and client communication, while Seniors can take greater ownership of engagements, review work and support junior colleagues.

Over time, there is scope to develop into broader leadership responsibilities, with future partnership potential for a strong long-term fit.

About Our Client

Our client is a small accounting and taxation firm with offices in Dalby and Toowoomba, supporting individuals, primary producers, businesses and private clients.

Services include accounting, taxation, BAS, bookkeeping, business advisory, SMSF compliance and succession planning. Advisory work covers practical matters such as business structures, profitability, cash flow and continuity.

The portfolio combines rural and primary production clients with businesses across trades, professional services, hospitality, retail and industries servicing the mining sector.

Personal service, clear advice and responsive communication underpin relationships that have developed over many years.

The Role

Work directly with the Partners across tax, accounting and business services engagements.

Responsibilities include:

  • Preparing financial statements and income tax returns for individuals, partnerships, companies, trusts and SMSFs
  • Preparing BAS and related compliance work
  • Supporting tax planning and practical business advice
  • Communicating with clients to gather information, resolve queries and explain accounting matters
  • Liaising with the ATO and other relevant bodies
  • Assisting with SMSF compliance where required
  • Managing allocated work, deadlines and progress updates
  • Working with Partners on technical questions and client priorities
  • Supporting improvements to practice processes

At Senior level, responsibilities will also include reviewing work prepared by junior accountants or bookkeepers, mentoring staff and taking greater ownership of client relationships.

What You’ll Bring

  • At least two years of Australian public practice experience, with greater experience expected for Senior appointments
  • A degree in Accounting, Business, Commerce or a related discipline
  • CA or CPA completed, underway or intended
  • Sound technical foundations across accounting, taxation and business services
  • Experience preparing financial statements and tax returns across multiple entity types
  • Clear communication skills and confidence working with business owners
  • Strong organisation, attention to detail and accountability
  • A practical approach to solving problems and responding to client needs
  • Willingness to learn, share knowledge and support colleagues

Xero experience will be highly regarded. Familiarity with Handisoft, primary production clients or SMSF work would also be useful.

What’s On Offer

  • $85,000 to $110,000 + superannuation, depending on experience
  • Opportunity to be based in Dalby or Toowoomba
  • Two days WFH per week after onboarding
  • Paid CA/CPA fees and study leave
  • Direct Partner access and mentoring
  • Client contact across a varied regional portfolio
  • Exposure to tax planning, business advisory and succession matters
  • Responsibilities tailored to your experience and capability
  • Opportunities to review work and develop junior staff
  • Long-term leadership progression and potential future partnership
  • A small team where your contribution is visible
